Hello everyone, this isn't my usual type of post but I'm in quite a shitty situation I fear...so I'm opening emergency commissions! Please read below but mind the TW!

they're just so grabby with each other when they're panicked. like yeah you better grab your boy lest he gets carried away by the cops. clutch onto his shirt and rush to grab his hand only to let go when you realize it's too risky for anyone to see. be as close as possible so that no one can separate you. yeah
the sheet hes holding is called “pickup lines the ladies will love”
On Intersex Awareness Day, we ask the world to support intersex people in our right to live authentically and unapologetically. But one day hasn’t been enough—so welcome to #IntersexAwarenessWeek!
Intersex Awareness Day, October 26th, marks a historic day in the start of the intersex movement. A group of intersex people and their allies protested at an American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) meeting nearly thirty years ago, to oppose the medical abuse and discrimination they’d endured.
Today, we are still fighting for that bodily autonomy. We're fighting for our freedom to exist as we are, beyond the stereotypical sex binary. We're fighting against the belief that doctors' opinions of how our bodies look matter more than ours do.
But we are also visible. The intersex-inclusive flag is flown across the country. Intersex people's bodies are starting to be taught in health classes and across medical schools. Intersex people are featured in films, memoirs, runways and on the morning news. We are here, and we're not hiding again.
Learn more & educate others! Look through our images and share them far and wide! Linked below is our Intersex FAQ for all the basic questions, and we'll be sharing new resources and tips to be an ally all week long! (We will only be blazing this post, however!)
We also suggest checking out other United States intersex organizations such as Intersex Awareness, Intersex Justice Project, Club Intersex, TIGERRS, The Houston Intersex Society, and InterConnect!
For those not in the USA, here is a list of international intersex organizations!
i just learned that bsd is on netflix in some countries and These are two of the thumbnails you can get for it. like Ok might as well slap on the LGBT category while you’re at it god damn
A few of my alters wanted to make an account so feel free to follow it do you want
@june-doe-2024 day 29: Free Day
Oooooof. Man
This took a lot of time and effort but I wanted my free day piece to be something special. I’ve been so dedicated to this idea and this is pretty much exactly what I wanted it to be. AU in which Jane Doe is a TV head and Karnak tells everyone’s stories through her.
[Video description: "Dream of Life" from Ride the Cyclone is the audio. A still image of Jane Doe with a TV for a head stands in front of purple curtains pulled back to reveal a starry night sky. She is wearing a gray and black plaid jumper and a floral lace top similar to the one she wears in the 2016 version of RTC. The power cord to the TV is wrapped loosely around her neck. The screen starts off black, then it shows static snow, followed by images of the rest of the choir, including: Ocean hugging the Up With People album; a young Noel smirking as he pulls the nativity pageant stunt, wearing the headdress and holding the bare little tree with the star on top; Mischa descending the stairs of a dark basement; a young Ricky standing with bright green crutches against a yellow wall with multiple framed photos of cats on it; Constance laying on her stomach on her bed cutting pieces out of her yearbook. Before each new image, the one preceding it is distorted by glitch. Following these are TV color blocks, which then display the words "ERROR: NO IDENTITY" and then "????" At which point the color blocks are distorted by snow and glitch until the TV screen tunes off. End video description]
Some stills under the cut (I didn't write alt text for each still because I'm on a bit of a time crunch and they're all described in the above video description, these are just the stills from that).
